Vehicle Detail

Up for grabs is my 1970 Jaguar E type convertible. I am the third owner, but I’ve only taken it around the block a few times since trading my 1990 XJS (and a lot to boot) for it. Much more fun to drive than the XJS. The car has a fresh light green paint, new tan interior, tan top and a new 5-speed transmission installed by the first owner. The Jag was originally purchased in Charelson, SC in August 1970 for $6,000.00. He owned and took amazing care of the car until he pasted away at the age of 98 (he drove the car up til he was 96). He left the car to his accountant (my friend & second owner) and he drove the car off and on for about a year before trading with me. The Jag Is about 3 years and 500 miles removed from the original owner. The only reason I’m selling it is because I’m a mopar guy. I’ve got a good collection going, and it’s just not the same. Fun car to drive and looks great, but it’s no t a Mopar. The Good: · Only 34,000 original miles.· Light green paint (about 6 years old)· New tan leather upholstery· New $800.00 Steering wheel· Factory air· New 5 speed transmission. Cost over $5,600.00.· Tonneau Cover that covers the windshield back to the folded convertible top.· Everything original except for the interior, transmission & fresh paint.· Tires are in great condition.· Bumpers look good for their age.· Full spare tire. (Never been touched)· No dents / never in an accident – Strait as an arrow.· Drives better than the 1990 XJS I traded for it ( and a lot more fun)· Original owners manual, maintenance sheet and even the sales receipt when sold new. The Bad (not that bad): · The speedometer cable is broken.· The rims look good, however, could be polished to look better.· The gauge lights don’t work (Blown fuse maybe?) This Jaguar is very nice, a blast to drive and very attractive car. Please email me with any questions you have, and I’ll do my best to get them answered. Thanks for looking.
